Instructions
Chocolate Nests
  1. Line a 12-hole muffin pan with paper cases.
  2. Melt chocolate, butter and golden syrup together in the microwave on a medium heat. Do this in short 20 second bursts until everything is melted. Remove bowl and stir together until smooth.
  3. Pour chocolate mix over the cornflakes. Mix until all the cornflakes are coated in the chocolate.
  4. Divide the mixture evenly into the paper cases. Press the mix down using wax paper so the mixture does not stick to your hands. Make a dip in the centre of each to form a nest shape.
  5. Chill in the fridge for about half an hour or until set.
  6. Cover in chocolate flakes and top with mini Easter eggs, about 3 in each nest.
Marshmallow Nests
  1. Grease muffin pans and set aside.
  2. Melt marshmallows and butter in a large microwave safe bowl for about 2 minutes. Watch closely as the marshmallows will puff up a lot. Stir together.
  3. Pour over rice bubbles. Mix until well combined.
  4. Scoop evenly into greased muffin pan. Press the mix down using wax paper so the mixture does not stick to your hands. Make a dip in the centre of each to form a nest shape.
  5. Set aside to cool completely, about half an hour. Or place in fridge to speed up this process.
  6. Cover in sprinkles and top with mini Easter eggs, about 3 in each nest.
